ARTHUR KILL
TRENTON, Jnly 13.-Ths hearing in the Arthur Kill
Bridge resumed this morning. before Justice
Bradley A. .. Keasbey occupied short time closing
his argument tor the defendant, begun yesterday
afteruoun.
CoItlandt Parker then began for the State He said
the case according to the defendant was between
sovereignties New-J-rsey was q lesser sovereignty
than that OF the United States Government, but within
q special aud wider field was as sovereign as the
Union He claimed that as sovereign, the State
owned the bed OF the which bound the shore,
in the same way as individuals own property. Mr..
Parker characterized the act of Congress under which
the defendant acts, valueless unless under tran
chises Of the State
In the afternoon Attorney General Stockton pre-
sented his argument behalf OF the State Its tenor
was similar to those of his colleagues.
w. w. Mcfarland. OF New-YSrk followed for the
defendants He said the real ground OF complaint OF
the State the deprivation of the right to levy a
tax upon the commerce OF the country and not tho
loss OF the ground that might be used for rarng she'll
fish, FOR the purposes OF commerce the country and
the company know no Stale lines. He declared that
congress had much right to bridge Arthur Kill as

case will probably up in form at the OPEN

A Sour Face.

A sour face is not good even fol
vinegar you cannot pickle either
green or ripe fruit with it. 1t is a
kind of soumess that is of no worth.
while it docs u good deal Of harm.
Often Il sour lace is contagious us
mumps. 1t looks like them. One
of your long faces, entering room
where all is joyous and happy, will
often steal away all the sunshine
and leave only a gloomy, morose
cloud. 1t is like putting cake of
ice near Il blooming violet. That
flower gets chilled and cannot grow
while the ice is near. Even the per-
tume has only half its strength.
Society has claims and rights that
should be respected. No one has a
right to be parading his sour face,
to chill and kill the proper joy of
others. Though the law cannot in
dict him as a nuisance, he is none
the less regarded as such by all
whom he freezes. We feel like but
toning up our coats and drawing ON
our gloves upon meeting such a per-
son-so as to keep the cold from
striking in. 1t is Il bad kind of cold
to takc-a cold in the mind-worse
than one in the head. "Pink-eyc"
is a beauty beside it, and pneumonia
Is Just about even with it. If we
are homely we cannot make our
selves handsome But the sourness
can be washed off and kept away.
Even Il handsome face grows repul-
sivc under sour looks, and plain
face becomes positively hideous. So
keep the vinegar for pickles and
the bright face for people.
